Family Time

We are in the process of getting our yard ready for spring and summer. Does everyone else do that too? Ignore their yard all winter then work their tails off after for shirking their duties? To add to the workload we have decided to pour a cement slab in the backyard that we can use as a basketball court. On Saturday Stefan took down the fence and the dog pen that we no longer need to get the yard ready. While he was slaving away and I was supervising, Hadley asked if this was family time. Sad. Is that as good as family time gets? Looks like we need to make more of an effort.
